The Official La Trobe Physics Society are a passionate student group who host social board games, coffee meetups, and occasional stargazing sessions.
Who said that growing up was mandatory?! Who said that studying physics at university was for nerds?! And who said that physicists don’t know how to have phun?! The La Trobe Physics Society is a student-run organisation within the school of Physics for anybody and everybody with an interest in physics from undergraduates to academics. We run multiple events throughout the year including astronomy
